Appreciation...

Had a call from an old friend today, she wanted to know if I was interested in joining Temenos Greece, under any other cirumstances, I would have jumped at that offer, but after the Brussels fiasco, and the way things are going on now for me in Fortis, Amsterdam. I felt I would be better off in a place where I am appreciated for what I am.

I was thinking about this, and another ephiphany was born, if this is how I feel about work, why should it not be the same about the girl I love, if she does not appreciate what I am and what I do, does not love me in return, and constantly keeps trying to 'improve' me, why the heck should I be wasting my time and energy with such a person?

Thambi, your two ephiphanies are
perfectly understandable.
In the case of a job, I agree with
you feel.
But in the case of a girl whom you
love, you may not get 100 per cent
understanding. That does not mean
avoiding it is the solution.
The very fact that the woman is called the opposite sex,there are
bound to be opposite views, objections etc. We will have to accept life with all its infirmities and disadvantages,
lack of understanding etc.
But with all the limitations etc.,
family, children, a home of your
own are the beautiful and bright side of it. It is worth pondering
over what I have shared with you.
